1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

introductionThe aim of this study was to compare mortality in community-based Australians with type 1 diabetes (T1D), without diabetes, or with type 2 diabetes (T2D). RESEARCH DESIGN AND

methodsThe longitudinal observational Fremantle Diabetes Study Phase I (FDS1) T1D cohort, matched people without diabetes from the FDS1 catchment area, and matched FDS1 participants with T2D were followed up from entry (1993-1996) to death/end-2017. Mortality rates (MRs) and mortality rate ratios (MRRs) were calculated. Cox regression models identified independent determinants of death.

resultsOf 121 participants with T1D and 484 age/sex/postcode-matched people without diabetes (pooled mean±SD age 43.1±15.3 years, 59.2% men), 55 (45.5%, MR 25.7 (95% CI 19.4 to 33.5)/1000 person-years) and 88 (18.2%, MR 8.5 (95% CI 6.8 to 10.4)/1000 person-years), respectively, died during 12 541 person-years of follow-up (MRR 3.04 (95% CI 2.13 to 4.31), p<0.001). Among participants with T1D, diagnosis at age 18-27 years and baseline HbA

conclusionsT1D substantially increases the risk of death, especially when diagnosed in late adolescence/young adulthood. Diabetes type does not influence mortality after adjustment for key confounding variables.
